As a non-profit organization, we are dedicated to preserving and promoting the vibrant tradition of big band and jazz music through captivating live performances and community engagement. Our musicians, celebrated for their high-level artistry, bring a timeless energy to every event, from concerts to private gatherings.
Our Mission
We are dedicated to supporting and encouraging secondary school music education. We've provided tens of thousands of dollars in scholarships and grants, helping students gain the knowledge, equipment, and experience needed to qualify for and attend college, regardless of their major interest. We also participate in joint concerts with schools and involve students in our rehearsals.
